M.I.A.'s new single & video "Born Free" (AKA Ginger Genocide): NSFW

I've been anxiously waiting for M.I.A's new album to come out in June, and yesterday I heard the first single, "Born Free."  I was definitely surprised by the song- it's more raw and more rock- makes sense that it's a rip from Suicide's "Ghost Rider."  I think this is a good move for her to move away from Lady Gaga  her copycats.

I like the song even more after watching the music video- apparently this ginger genocide epic is already banned on youtube.

THE DIVANATOR MIXTAPE (Part I)

The first leg of my new mixtape, THE DIVANATOR, is now recorded and ready for download! It was inspired by all of the gays who request really cliche gay diva music when I DJ. I usually just laugh, and I sometimes feel bad about it. But in the spirit of Pride, I thought I would give back and grace your ears with this delicious DJ TMY's raved out mixtape of some of our favorite divas.

Setlist:
1. Lady Gaga- The Fame
2. Life Express- Come into My Life (Tech House Mix)
3. Kelly Rowland and David Guetta- When Love Takes Over (Electro Mix)
4. Rihanna- Don't Stop the Music (LAZRtag Club Remix)
5. Britney Spears- Womanizer (Tommie Sunshine's 'Holy Shit, the Economy is Fucked Re-Rub)
6. Life Express- Kazzazza (LE BigRoom Mix)
7. Beyonce- Ring the Alarm (Freemasons Remix)
8. Mary J. Blige- Be Without You (Club Mix)
9. Ciara and Justin Timberlake- Love Sex Magic (Chew Fu Small Room Fix)
10. Madonna and Knightlife- Get Into the Discotirso (DJ TMY Mashup)
11. All-American Rejects- Gives You Hell (The Bloody Beetroots Remix)
12. Cher and Snoop Dogg- Believe in Sexual Eruption (Mashup)

MIA

M.I.A. has been twatting up a storm about the end to the civil war in sri lanka- glad to see her up and about after the baby and talking some politics- here's MIA on Bill Maher on 5/22. They're kinda totally awkward together.

Also- just heard a really good Of Montreal cover of M.I.A.'s "Jimmy"
